I’m more into the club banging beats that I can dance to. I respect the new dances, but I don’t have the shoulder shimmies down just yet. I see why people love Kendrick (and J Cole). As lyricists, they’re on point. Just not my thing. Yeah. The new school beats that those guys have are definitely not club bangers. I listen to both J. Cole and Kendrick a reasonable amount. I go through phases. Right now, I actually have zero hip-hop in rotation and have been like that for a few months. Kind of reflects my moods. But, if someone turns them on, I am definitely not walking away. Just now, MAJBobby said: Would love a Wu halftime show. I’m not sure that will ever happen.

Imagine the Melt down if Wu-Tang was the halftime show? Oh man. ❤️ Shame on a N, triumph, Wu tang forever and Gravel Pit are in my defensive rotation when we need a stop. Forgot to mention Naughty by Nature. An all time pairing that is criminally underrated imo. SO many of their songs bring back the fondest of memories. Treach and Vin brought it and had the beats to match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Summary Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 The last of the great rockers are all in their 70s. Have a conversation with many in their 20's about these groups and you'll usually get blank stares or maybe a comment about how their dad had their cd. Reality. The halftime show is now firmly more a "show" than it is a mini concert. Dancers, props, fake guitar playing, pre-recorded tracks, etc. It's visual. It's diverse across genre. It's safe. It's the NFL. Presumably it's profitable. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwater10 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Damn... I'm in my 60's and feeling every year of it with this thread. How about a Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young reunion, a Bills win, and then you can all just send me off to the memory care center a happy man. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Landing Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I'm really looking forward to this HT show. Even just historically speaking, it's a pretty cool lineup. Dr Dre is rap royalty. However you feel about his music, his influence is undeniable. His resume as a producer is massive. M.J. Blige is amazing live, and might be the most talented one up there. Kendrick Lamar almost single-handedly returned rap to popular relevance with the release of We Gon Be Alright. Eminem (originally produced by Dr. Dre, btw) was one of the biggest drivers in expanding rap into mainstream appeal. Snoop Dogg deserves some credit for that, as well. I've worked on over 30 Snoop Dogg videos in my career, and all but three of them were other artist's videos "featuring Snoop Dogg." No one who has met him doesn't like him. It's hard to overstate how much of a unifying influence he has been in the music industry, and in popular culture. I've turned down a blunt from him three times! (Don't judge, I was working, and had to keep my head clear...) If I have any misgivings on this lineup, it's that it's so one-dimensional. I've always thought the shows that had a lot of crossover genres were the better ones. Madonna in 2012 had a ton. And I still hold out hope for the Super Bowl Halftime Show that would, in my opinion, be the greatest of all time: Weird Al Yankovic with Special Guests. There used to be an annual petition for him. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProcessTruster Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Even if I'm not familiar with the acts, SB halftime is pretty great. What a production each year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m good with that. You young punks have no clue what music is and it’s clearly evident by this Halftime presentation. Not a single lyric SUNG, nothing more than beginner level musicians and completely devoid of score verse/chorus/instrumentals/middle 8’s. To everyone who truly knows music, this is complete trash. I’ll be napping. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Avenger Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 (edited) Although I'm a metal guy, I do enjoy the old school rap - I listen to LL Cool J's Rock the Bells on Sirius XM all the time. Very good artists for halftime but when they announced it I was trying to figure out what songs they could do - most of the lyrics and themes in Dre/Snoop's big songs would not work at all - can you think of anything LESS family friendly then them singing "187 with my D in your mouth"?

Halftime of the SB is traditionally my personal time to eat, hit the head, or do whatever needs doing, with the comfort of knowing I am missing absolutely NOTHING. I see that won't change this year, which is great. Not to sound like an old geezer but damn I feel sorry for people who grew up with mid 90's and on samples music. I got to see all the cool bands that everyone still knows and loves. When I saw Michael Jackson in the Rose Bowl I was impressed......when I watched both Aerosmith, Petty, Chili Peppers, and the Stones play on TV I was way more impressed. THOSE were bands.......just saying that they were my musical preference. Hope the above cast of artists rock out and it is a good show......we shall see.

Ray Stonada Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Dre, Snoop, Mary J, Eminem and Kendrick Lamar are ALL the equivalent of NFL Hall of Famers. Incredibly talented and expressive musicians. Anyone who thinks otherwise just doesn’t know anything about hip hop and soul. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
